Hero Technologies' subsidiary in Michigan, BlackBox Systems and Technologies LLC, has already obtained pre-qualification approval for Adult (recreational) and Medicinal Use cannabis licenses in Michigan and recently received local license and permit approval to use the Vassar property for cannabis operations.
In 2022, Michigan's market for legal marijuana has grown 27% over 2021 and by year-end, cannabis sales in the state should approach $2.3 billion.
The company's Vassar property, in central Michigan, is ideally located for distribution across the state. More than 1.6 million people live within 50 miles of the site and Vassar is a 1.5-hour drive from Lansing, the state capital, and Detroit, with a metro population of 4.4 million.
"We are gratified to be able to close on our target property in Vassar, Michigan, according to plan," said Hero Technologies' CEO Gina Serkasevich. "We chose the site for its cannabis-friendly local zoning, cost effectiveness, and geographic location at the heart of Michigan's booming marijuana market. We are acting promptly to develop the property for cannabis production under our state and local licenses, and we look forward to generating a positive return on our investments for our employees and our investors."
